I've also had an opportunity to play a little with Lanny, and he is 100% the opposite. Great all around guy who wants to make sure everyone is having fun.

A company I used to work for holds a charity hockey tournament in Vancouver each year. They brought out Cliff Ronning as one of their celebrities. The guy thought he was on the current canucks' roster, as he was going full speed, dove multiple times, and kept whining for penalties. Oddly enough there were no refs or linesmen, but he still wanted penalties called. He did earn tournament MVP, so there's that. Many of the guys in the games could barely skate. He must be proud.
